Bill Sampy, a rookie free-agent wideout from Louisiana-Lafayette who has been praised by coaches this week, thinks he knows what McNabb means. "I'm real excited. I played at a small school and haven't been in a nationally televised game before," Sampy said. "I kind of have that problem [even in practice]. Sometimes when it's press coverage, I tend to hurry up my route. It's a matter of taking my time, reading defenses." The rest of the story

Sampy, who had catches in 40 straight college games, aims to extend it to NFL. BETHLEHEM, Pa. - Chase Utley's hitting streak, which ended last night, won't be the last one Philadelphia sports fans get to follow this summer. Eagles rookie wide receiver Bill Sampy is hoping to make a catch in his 41st straight game. Technically, if Sampy does make a catch tomorrow in the Hall of Fame game against the Raiders, it won't count. The 40 catches came in college at Louisiana-La. and this is only a preseason game. But it counts to Sampy. Actually, Sampy, who joined the Eagles as a free agent, is trying to make everything count so that he can make the team. "It's all about competition," said Sampy, who is 5-foot-11, 192 pounds. "I came in as a free agent and I'm at the bottom trying to work my way up. The main thing right now is me getting a shot." So far in camp, the coaches have liked what they've seen from the speedy receiver, who finished his career fifth in the Ragin' Cajuns' all-time list with 1,988 receiving yards.

If I am correct that probably puts Carencro High School as producing more NFL players than any other Lafayette area school.
Wade Richey 49ers/Ravens
Kevin Faulk Patriots
Cash Mouton Ravens
Bill Sampy Eagles

Lafayette High

Bill Ryckman Falcons
Ced Figaro Chargers
Jerry Fontenot Bears/Saints

J. Delhomme with Carolina
B. Stokley with the Colts
C. Tillman with the Bears
CC Brown with the Texans
and Super Bowl Champion Ike Taylor of the Steelers

All of who start or play significant minutes.

Don't forget OL Anthony Clement who was at Arizona for years and is now somewhere else and is still playing!
